Choose The Right SpotTry to park your trailer centered within your camping space. If you’re planning on making adjustments, park the trailer where you want it before you begin.

Check them all to be sure the bubbles are centered within the marked lines.

Place A Level On Your Trailer Hitch
If you don’t have levels built in to your trailer you can use your own level. The trailer hitch is an ideal spot to check. From this angle, you can often make the required adjustments to ensure that your trailer is level. Use your level to adjust front to back and side to side.

Use A Board To Lift a Low SideBring along a few boards, of varying depth. These are the ideal way to lift low sides. Place the board underneath the trailer on the low side. This should help balance the trailer.

Watch Your Wheels
Don’t let your trailer roll away. Chock those wheels once you’ve leveled the trailer. Ensure that it’s unhitched and place chocks or large rocks behind each of the wheels. This way, you can rest assured that it will remain in place.
